Huacaya Herdsire (Male) Medium Fawn

AOA# 35379188 DOB: 4/23/20195 yrs
This guy is programmed for pre-potency! Color coat testing = Ee AA, and…of the few progeny on the ground, he is fulfilling exactly what we thought he would and we can’t wait to get more of his progeny on the ground! Rigel won his 6th Championship at the 2023 AOA National IFA Fleece Show (measured AFD 20.1 micron) as Dark Color Champion at 4-years old! We know that his sire, CCNF Leviathan, has stamped out tons of champions. His dam, Stillmeadow Farm Bella’s Dream, has produced 4 champions thus f ...

So...Adhara will be staying in our foundation herd. We sold her as a yearling and we were able to purchase her back as a 2-year-old. We love her fiber qualities and spot-on conformation. Her fleece has developed nicely, and that spot doesn't bother us at all. With that fleece, we have a plan for Adhara! In looking at Adhara's fleece, it's a strong combination of everything good from her parents -- it has beautiful crimp and bundling with an extremely fine micron and wonderful handle. Adhara was shown as a yearling at the 2022 CAC/CAP Show, and she garnered first place in a Halter class of whites, even though she has that rather obvious fawn spot in her blanket, and she took third in a tough Walking Fleece class! I think the Judge was considering Adhara for a RC banner, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it because of that spot...it was obvious he liked both her fleece and conformation.

Adhara's very promising as a step towards creating a highly evolved fleece character in a darker fleeced offspring! She'll be able to push color through. Can't wait to put her together with a darker herdsire! The decision will be whether to breed her to Man in the Moon's Rigel, a 5x Champion — see his webpage for more information, or our new herdsire, Irish Meadows Corteva (who has a Judge's Choice banner under his belt). I can assure you that the cria out of either of these multi-champion males will be amazing. We expect a high probability for a fawn cria of solid color with an absolutely phenomenal fleece! Well, we decided to go with Rigel, and she’s been confirmed pregnant by ultrasound! Can’t wait for this cria!

Adhara did show at the 2021 MAPACA as a Juvie and she definitely got dinged for having the spot in her blanket, but Judge Wade Gease said he kept her in at 4th because of her bright fleece, fineness and her uniformity across the blanket—while mentioning that spot. Despite the spot, we repeated this breeding with hope for another little girl just like Adhara...minus the spot would be a bonus, but we'll take it either way with this high quality fleece! Adhara's full sibling arrived and her name is Carina! We bred their dam, Venus, back to their sire, Ganymede, for yet another full sibling. Can't wait to see him or her in Spring of 2023!…And wow!!! Adhara has a full brother, Centaurus, and he’s just amazing — perhaps the best yet from this pairing of Adhara’s dam and sire! Looking forward to the 2024 full sibling, and she arrived: Astra is her name and she’s stunning!


P.S. Adhara is a star in the constellation Canus Majora
